Why not start with an XJ kinda conversion? Keep the coils up front and convert the rear to springs. I know that won't help the death wobble issues any, but it'll improve the ride quality and elimate any rear issues caused by a taller lift and coils. Although going all springs does leave SOA as an option as well (I'm guessing that's your plan if you go this route). What kinda DW issues were you having because I've been kicking around a HP30 option if I could find a junker for the right price?

i concur, perfect stability in the rear. and incredible flex up front..._________________I AM ONLY HALF THE MAN I USED TO BE, WHICH STILL MAKES ME TWICE THE MAN THAT YOU ARE NOW...

sorry i have leaf springs thankfully but what exactly is death wobble?

Death Wobble usually refers to a violent shaking of the front end while driving 30+mph. It's can be caused by lifting (which increases the driveline angles), tires being out of balance, bad front tend alignment, etc. Oh yeah, and it's not limited to coils springs either.

Rock On!

To add to that, it is when the system gets out of 'wack' , as in the drivers and passenger sides are working indepenatanly.

The times i expericaned it it would be onset by hitting say a pothole with the ds tire, it was very violent and the tires were so out of wack they would be leaving the ground and jumping all over.

hmm now my jeep hasn't exactly been "aligned" in... a long time, doesn't pull noticibly tho and i've never had ne control issues like you all are describeing would it have nething to do with spring stiffness?_________________94 Jeep YJ 3.5 inch lift 33's Tera SYE and CV driveshaft, More Sport Cage, BL/MML, rust

There was a really good doc I found once that listed different things to check when death wobble occurred. Brandy may still have it. But numerous things cause death wobble. I think tire balancing fixed it once for brandy, alignment another time, etc...._________________dan is the coolest
